Due to the lapse in appropriated funds, all public lands managed by the Interior Department (National Parks, National Wildlife Refuges, Bureau of Land Management facilities, etc.) will be closed. For more information, FAQs, and updates, please visit www.doi.gov/shutdown.
Who’s going to stop you from hunting? The Fed game wardens are home and not working. That’s a lot of land to just put a CLOSED sign on:smiley:
don’t believe everything you read on the internet, it will cause you to miss more hunting days and allow the others bluffing you to have more land to themselves…
no effect, hunt away…
'bout time
Sign? What sign? I didn’t see no effen sign! I shot that deer over there and it ran in here!
hunt until someone with actual authority tells you otherwise
Interesting news ! … I just called the DNR law enforcement division in Columbia. I was told that all hunting areas are open in FMNF. The rifle ranges and campgrounds are closed. I talked to an LEO who tranfered me to Ms. Dot who told me this with no hesitation… Ken
